SQL Service Refusing to start? Here are a few things to try

1. Try put startup type to delayed and restart the machine



2. If error code is 2146893007 this means that SSL3.0 and/or TLS1.0 are currently disabled. They will need to be enabled via registry. They need to be set to 1. If you regedit you will see them in these paths

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\SSL3.0\Server\Enabled



HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\SSL3.0\Server\Enabled






3. Go on Log Tab of the service and select log on as local account


4. Check the master files 

First we need to find out the current location of the files. Once files are identified, either put them into the location where SQL wants or you will have to ALTER the database to point to the correct location and that will give you less headaches. If the issue lies with models or tempdb database you will need to start SQL Server using trace flag 3608 as explained in this link. If you still fail, try rebuild the master database.

Gentlest introduction : The Cloud

How it began To me the concept of cloud started when people began virtualizing their systems using the like of Virtual-box and VMware. What bough this a;long was the evolution/advent of technology which made it possible for software so simulate hardware. Originally software could not simulate hardware drivers but the moment that became possible- virtualization was born. A few years after- companies started offering this virtualization at a much grander scale and Infrastructure as a service was born. Lets get down to the three cloud components namely: Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) This outsourced hardware meaning that one noways noes not need to setup servers, air-con and the like of access control but could 'rent' from someone and one of the great things about this was that a backup not only meant software but also meant hardware (as software could now simulate hardware) so recovery in case of disaster became easier. Platform as a Service (PAAS) This is ...

Deploy Django app online for free!

So after a number of lines of code, brilliance and dreaming. Your next dream is for the world to see. Of course you can walk around with your computer and doing a 'manage.py runserver' But cumon guys, lets embrace the cloud. Not like this guy though! I choose to deploy on  PythonAnywhere . So you ask why? 1) Free amazing support - You actually talk to a live human ! 2) Easy - Very easy 3) Affordable - As you scale up, it gets way better! So by now I assume you are already on a version control system (So I will not waste much energy on that one). Maybe Ill someday write on my two favs  Github  and  Bitbucket . STEP 1: Create an account on pythonanywhere. Kindly note that your username will be included in your apps url. So it will be like : " yourUsername .pythonanywhere.com" STEP 2: Select other and set a bash console. STEP 3: Push your code from version control This will push from (in my example) github to your pythonanywhere. You...

Artificial Neural Networks - Intro for beginners

The perceptron Single node perceptron Perceptrons form the basis for ANNs. Perceptron takes input and produces output as below: Input ➡️ Activation Function ➡️ Output Input If the weight is 0- input remains unaltered coming into the perceptron. Below is what happens to the input ∑ w i z i  ≽ t then y = 1. Else y = 0.  i t is the threshold which is set by the outgoing part. So the key to output is based on the weighted sum and the threshold. Activation function This is the processing part of the neuron and this determines output. So most commonly the ones used are the Sigmoid function and the hyperbolic tangent. QUESTION: Which activation function should I use? I am going to talk of three key activation functions a) Sigmoid The Sigmoid returns 0 or 1 and in code can be written as return 1.0/(1.0+Math.exp(-x) A Sigmoid is a mathematical curve having the characteristic S shape. DISADVANTAGE: Descending Gradient b) Tanh DISAD...
